Seagreens® Certified Ingredients is the result of an Anglo-Nordic joint venture which began in the late 1990s. As a leading horticultural producer, Seagreens® began in 1997 to focus on human nutrition, pioneering European food quality seaweed harvesting and production first among the remote Arctic Lofoten Islands, now in the Outer Hebrides.
Here - from the richest nutrient deposits on Earth which feeds thousands of marine species - we choose the shallow water Wrack seaweeds for the outstanding breadth and balance of nutrients, to bring you natural products of the highest quality and value.
Seagreens® seaweeds are unique, the product of sustainable wild harvesting, free of contaminants, toxic metals and microbial pathogens, and Certified to Organic Standards in the EU and USA.
We continue to undertake original scientific studies relating to salt replacement and cardiovascular disease, obesity and other food and health concerns.
In the past 3 years with British Government funding, research at the Centre for Food Innovation in Sheffield has shown that Seagreens® can successfully replace up to 50% of salt (sodium chloride) in manufactured foods.
In recent years our interests in Norway have been transferred into the ownership of Algea, a large horticultural producer, while we retain sole distribution in the British Isles and Nordic region. Our R&D in human food continues in the Outer Hebrides.
The effect of this is already apparent. Hebridean Seagreens® has full HACCP and Organic status and delivers an outstandingly fresh, nutritious, well documented ingredient supported by our unique research programme.
Customers using our branded ingredients are Seagreens® Brand Partners. Brand Partnership offers valuable benefits including supply-side assurances, custom products, NPD consultancy and publicity, and membership of the Seaweed Health Foundation.
For 12 years we have focussed on harvesting several varieties of the worlds finest brown Wrack, among the most balanced, nutritious and well-researched of all seaweeds.
Close to harvest we have modern technologies for drying, grinding, milling, micronizing, liquidising and further processing.
We low-temperature air dry the seaweed immediately after harvest - one of many distinctive factors in their quality. Several processes of our own design have produced proprietary products.
